How to Place Alien Nanobots in Fortnite
Week 5 of Fortnite Season 17 Challenges is now live globally, and the new Alien Nanobots represent another great chance for players to quickly level up their Battle Pass.
Weekly Challenges have always been in the game, and every week they offer some quick and easy ways for players to earn tons of XP. In Season 17, these challenges are divided into epic and legendary quests, with the latter offering more experience.
We are now in the fifth week of the season and several new challenges have just gone live, and one of those challenges has to do with the new alien nanobots added in update 17.11 .
How to Find and Place Alien Nanobots in Fortnite
This new alien tech was recently added to the game during a content update and players will be able to find them in most chests and on the floor. Basically, it's a multi-purpose tool that can be used to either upgrade a weapon or as a throwable item.
In order to complete the challenge, you will need to use the alien nanobots, but there is a small problem that players run into when trying to find them on the map.
As noted by HYPEX, Epic has disabled the Abductor so players cannot visit the Alien Mothership, which has the highest Alien Nanobot spawn point.
We're sure this will be resolved quickly, but when you can access the ship again, alien nanobots will appear here.
- Regular chests
- Abductor Chests
- Flagship Chests
- Storey booty
The new Alien Nanites are wild! Who hasn't gotten to use them yet?
